Honda could not fix it. They said to replace the front bumper. Right now I can't afford a new one.

Heres some pics. Don't mind the tires, I have the HFP 17" on order.

 

two washers and JB weld will re-create that hole in the bumper... won't be the prettiest, but you should be able to get the bumper back against the fender again until you can afford another one

 

If I push it into place and tighten the screw it will stay, its when I drive o the highway that it comes out.

 

JB weld (ghetto glue) a washer on the side of the bumper that doesn't touch the fender (underside)... let it dry before you do anything else.. basically what you're trying to do is make it look like it used to, you could even use a plastic washer..

anyways, the screw comes out because you don't have a complete circle of material on the bumper.. there is a gap that allows the screw to escape and the bumper to fall at higher speeds / more stress.. the fact that it stays together when you're not driving fast is a bonus.

after everything dries, screw the hell out of it and take off

This shouldn't be too hard of a fix.. I'd do it for ya if you were closer

 

Thanks man, i realy appreciaite it. I'll go to pepboys and get some glue and get a washer. I really don't want to buy a new bumper, I don't pay crap for this car. Plus I am getting the fog lights installed, so I'll get them installed then I'll glue the thing.

just screw it back in before you go in to get the lights done and act like you didnt know about it, make big deal about it and make them pay!

 

ahhaha to late, i took it in yesterday so they can fix it. Im an idiot, my freind told me to do the same thing. DOH!

 

drill 2 SUPER tiny holes on each side & get THIN metal wire and "tie them together

when they are together get a "HEAT GUN" and let it stay on it for a while "melting the plastic ( BE CARFEFUL and using a small hobby knife u should be able to bond them together.

 

old school, DUCK TAPE IT! LOL

 

Auto body supply stores (not Pepboys or Kragen, talking about the Pros) sell a type of glue made especially for bumper covers. It is super strong and bonds to the material permanently. You can even use excess and reform that spot with some guides in place.

FTMFW!

 

haha. alright, I'llg et my fogs installed then i'll glue this sucker.

 

did it just break, or did the bumper get hit?

 

Was driving one day and got out and saw it.

 

if it just broke isnt that something the warranty covers?

 

No, own't cover damages. I got my OEM fogs installed today 60$!!! from Honda. They told me what to do. I hope it works

 

They only charged you 60 bucks?!?! wow we chage 2.5 hours at 97 bucks an hour... you do the math

 

I have 2 friends and 1 cousin that works there. And I am there kinda everyday getting stuff for dealership.

 

oh ok! i was bout to say man you got hooked the f**k up!

 

haha. yea I always pay cheap for labor. I love the fact I get everything installed under warranty fo cheap.

 

im the same way... ill pay someone like 20-30 bucks to do whatever i need, its more than they would make at their hourly rate minus taxes

 

actually, it wa 3 hours, cause they checked my audio system and found out it was f**** . cause when I increase the sound past 30 it shuts off. So they ordered me a new one fo free. It keeps gettin better and better. lol

 

damn i max out my system at like 23-24 when listenin to XM and like 19 when i use my sd card, i dont think mines ever even hit 30!

 

ahaha, I'm the city, i like to crank it up. Plus I got an LX. but I am thinking about getting the navi offline and getting it installed.

 

im in the city too but i just dont like my system sounding like crap. i have the navi, its awesome!
